Mosaics

NASA's Mars rover Curiosity took 17 image pairs in Gale Crater using its mast-mounted Navigation Camera (Navcam) to create this mosaic. The seam-corrected mosaic provides a 360-degree cylindrical perspective projection panorama of the Martian surface suitable for stereo viewing, centered at 147 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). This anaglyph must be viewed with red/blue glasses (red over left eye). Curiosity took the images on December 12, 2012, Sols 125-124 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 1216, site number 5. The local mean solar time for the image exposures was from 11 AM to 2 PM. Each Navcam image has a 45-degree field of view.
